A back-end database server that confirms the identity of a supplicant to an authenticator in an 802.1X-authenticated network.
in 802.1x, an entity that provides an authentication service to an authenticator. This service determines, from the credentials provided by the supplicant, whether the supplicant is authorized to access the services provided by the authenticator.
An entity that provides an authentication service to an authenticator. From the credentials provided by a client (or supplicant), the authentication service determines whether the supplicant is authorized to access the services of the authenticator. In a Trapeze Networks Mobility System, one or more RADIUS servers can act as authentication servers.
A secure network-based server that holds the client keys of users and services and generates credentials that allow users to do mutual authentication.
A server that is set up to verify users of the system.
is a server application that provides authentication services for clients attempting to connect to a network. Authentication servers are part of a larger entity of devices, methods and protocols that serve to provide secure access to networks.
a Linux server that acts as a central authority by looking up a user's credentials in a MySQL database, notifying the gateway server of a user's status, and authorizing further access
a server that provides a secure way for pairs of processes to obtain secret keys for secure encryption
The engine within the Cams server that makes authentication decisions based on a security domain's login configuration.
A server that issues tickets for a desired service which are in turn given to users for access to the service. The AS responds to requests from clients who do not have or do not send credentials with a request. It is usually used to gain access to the ticket-granting server (TGS) service by issuing a ticket-granting ticket (TGT). The AS usually runs on the same host as the KDC.
A server that contains usernames and passwords and authorizes access to the network. See 802.1X.
Authentication servers are servers that provide authentication services to users or other systems. Users and other servers authenticate to such a server, and receive cryptographic tickets. These tickets are then exchanged with one another to verify identity.
